You’ve helped me so much. I’ma over weight alcoholic in rehab. I’ve started listening and watching your videos. Since then I’ve chosen to attack my addiction and fight. 52and just want to be happy again someday. Thanks
Nice save from Jocko about lying to friends. It is anyway not the case you want them to feel … it is about your own view of yourself or your actions not matching your desired view of yourself. Same as Dakota Meyer both Braxton & Dakota had different idea of how they should behave. This caused the lying … it was intentional.
What both gentleman’s doesn’t understand is the rest of us “mere” humans need to hear it … need to hear the heroes are just humans too. The point is regardless of being just humans both Braxton & Dakota went … against direct order or against bad feeling. So that we that didn’t … knows we can, there is a hidden hope for the rest of people that we can do, we can go … even despite authority/your cowardice say’s different.
Can I buy one book for Dakota? I sincerely believe he would benefit reading this book. Kind regards.

P.S.: Apologiese for being straight forward with lying … after 15 years of doing so I know where it leads. Truth is the only way forward. No harms intended
Australia here.
I generally listen to your podcast looking for cool war stories. I’m generally satisfied.
But this podcast is the best one yet … and weirdly had the LEAST war stories.
All men should listen to it.
Good job Fellas … keep going.
Of all the interviews with men about war and warfighting, this is the best for any man to self-reflect and understand his demons. Confront the dragons honestly, understand your responsibility for them, accept it and fight hard to defeat them. And never give up. At any age. This is the best podcast yet Jocko. Thank you.
This postcard is very interesting. Many information about warfighting that I did not know about has been clarified.
Watching this brings back so many memories.
